What Can You Tell Me About Courses of Tradethemarkets.com

Recommended Posts

Кто-нибудь покупки, что курсы?

Я особенно заинтересован в ленте чтения. курсы стоят очень дорого. как вы думаете, есть основания платить за это

 

Мой русский еще хуже, чем вы английски

шутка

 

;)

 

Welcome to TL

 

There is nothing 'wrong' with tradethemarkets.com per se, but like with most vendors, only a very small percentage of consumers are really going to find a real fit there and get their money's worth... also, past the rudiments, tape reading is a very hard skill to teach / transfer...

 

and, seriously ... if you have to / need to take a course in 'tape reading', you might need to consider the possibility that you really don't have the neural aptitudes for doing it day in and day out...

 

All the best

I have not taken any courses from Tradethemarkets, but I have used their traderoom. And I need to say that it is totally worthless. I personally know Rob Hoffman, he is a nice guy. Earlier, he used to have one of the most important quality of trader - patience. I personally disapprove his trading style, but with his enormous patience and lack of greed he always ended up with a good trade. I think, if I had his patience trading Drummond Geometry, I would be a very rich guy. When he joined tradethemarkets it all changed, instead of having a small group of 50 people he now has a room of 1000. No personal touch, less trading more talking, less attention to the market, more marketing of TTM courses and products. It ended up pretty bad one day few weeks ago, as you may know, when he got a margin call.

John Carter traded in the room few times apparently he was successful. Once, he made about 50 grand in one trade. However, whenever he trades, I have an impression that he is cheating and showing only winning trades. He has several DOM's and brings forward only profitable trades, but what happens in the background no one knows. I need to stress that it is my impression, I cannot prove it.

    • IMHO, the best feature of the Double Seven entry strategy is that buys and does not sell in equity-based markets. Large scale selling short in the primary stock markets requires a financed loan of shares from a broker, so it's less common than buying. Therefore, selling in a stock-tracking market generally isn't profitable--even where derivative instruments provide cheaper access to selling.
    • Another chart type... Footprint. 
    • I would forget about tinkering with lot sizes in the short-term. I only increase my lot size when it's justified by my growing capital (closed profit). Adjusting lot size on the fly would imply that I somehow know the specific probability of each individual trade succeeding--which I don't. So, I focus on the overall statistical performance of my strategy over every 6 months. This doesn't require anything clever. As an example, choose a chart structure (15 minute, 1 hour, Renko, range bar, etc.) where price swings are identifiable to your eye. Load a MACD oscillator onto the chart. Note that there are two MACD's floating around online. The "old" MACD uses a weighted EMA in its calculations while the "new" MACD uses a regular MACD in its calculations. If you're using the old one, focus on the main line crossing the signal line and ignore the zero level. If you're using the new one, focus on the main line crossing the zero level and ignore the signal line. These are your entries. Your dynamic exit target is the opposite crossover of whichever MACD lines you're using. Now for the most challenging part... stopouts. You need to determine the number of pips/points/ticks at which price traveled against your entry and did not return in favor of your entry for all trades. These stopout statistics can be collected with pen and paper, which I have arduously done in the past. This is much easier if you can code, backtest, and auto-optimize the stop level. The idea is that your dynamic takeprofit is theoretically infinite, and your stop is fixed at a level that is statistically favorable to you. Although this isn't really "money managment," it certainly manages your money.
